About the business
Peace and Release HK embodies the spirit of "Be Light," with a mission to raise awareness among Hong Kong residents about international affairs, particularly those related to the Middle East and the diverse ethnic minorities within the city. Through the lens of Islamic arts, the organization offers a unique platform for education and cultural exchange. At each pop-up market, a curated selection of products—including books and postcards that explore Middle Eastern and Islamic culture—serves as the highlight of the experience. These thoughtfully chosen items provide insight into rich traditions, fostering a deeper understanding of a region often underrepresented in mainstream discourse. The ultimate goal of Peace and Release HK is to cultivate a harmonious society and contribute to a better world by enhancing empathy among Hong Kong’s diverse population. Each event represents a small but significant step toward pursuing peace, encouraging individuals to engage with and learn from different cultures. By promoting dialogue and understanding through art and literature, Peace and Release HK aspires to inspire meaningful connections and foster a sense of community among people from all walks of life. Join the movement to be part of this journey toward a more compassionate and inclusive world. 中東伊斯蘭文化雜貨店-和平與釋放- 燃點光 透過伊斯蘭風格的藝術品：波斯台布、馬賽克燈、自家設計伊斯蘭風環保袋、中東帶回來的頸巾和摩洛哥手製皮革銀包等等喚起大眾對香港少數族裔和國際關係的關注。每次市集也擺放不同有關中東和伊斯蘭的書籍和明信片，藉着以藝術品作切入點，加強香港人的同理心，建立共融社會，旦願距離和平更進一步。
What's unique?
What sets Peace and Release HK apart is its distinctive identity as the first Islamic, Middle East, and Arab concept store run by a local Hong Kong woman. This unique perspective challenges common perceptions, as many are surprised to discover that the owner is neither Muslim nor Arab during their first visit. This innovative approach fosters a fresh dialogue about cultural understanding and inclusivity. The store serves as a vital platform for raising awareness among Hong Kong residents about international affairs, particularly concerning the Middle East and the experiences of ethnic minorities in the city. By focusing on education and empathy, Peace and Release HK encourages patrons to engage thoughtfully with these important issues. Through a curated selection of Islamic arts and cultural products, the store invites visitors to reflect and cultivate a deeper understanding of diverse cultures. This initiative not only enriches the local community but also helps bridge gaps between different ethnic groups, promoting a more empathetic and harmonious society. In essence, Peace and Release HK is not just a store; it is a catalyst for change—empowering individuals to embrace understanding and compassion as foundational elements of a united community.
